Everyone tells you that turning 18 is great and has so much more freedom. Which in ways is true, you have alot more freedom to fuck up hard. Kids (my friends) claim that they are now adults and can do what they want, this is not true, your still sucking that same tit youve been sucking for the past 17 years. Unless of course you move out on your own. Even then that sucks, youve got bills and much more responsibilities. I mean yeah maybe in the past 18 was a huge step but that was because your parents usually gave you the boot. Forcing you to find a job and a house quick, usually education took a back seat. But now a days people push education. The problem is education is as expensive as it is popular. Now everyone that pays for their own shit realizes that "hey, yeah im an adult but that tit sure was nice". I have the ultimate respect for those living completely independent from their parents or other sources of workless income.  The kids who go off to college with a meal ticket and a new car can suck it.

Basically Im whining because all of this just set in after a long vacation in costa rica. That and I was quitting cigs and now that I can purchase them when ever I want just kinda threw a wrench in my gears. So Im gonna go suck down my stick of defeat and ponder how to make the funds to survive. Im thinking selling drugs, drug dealers have nice cars so they must have money.

In my country, 19 = booze and titties.
You trying to say thats bad?

Im still contemplating moving out this summer, but am real skeptical on trying to live on just over $10 an hour for the next 8 months.

Actually, get a ball of coke and you can turn that into a LOT of money if you make rocks out of it. Of course, when the people you're selling to find out you have soft, well... But I may have said too much...

she already has titties which in turn gets her booze, duh.
 
besides if you are waiting until age 19 for booze and titties, you are doing it wrong.

18 is great because of the government shit, I can't tell you how long Ive been wanting to be 18 so I dont have to put up with bullshit restrictions.

But thats a shit way to live life.

I moved out 3 days after I turned 18, on my own accord. Somehow I've managed to live, pay for school, etc on a grand total of $9/hour. $10 shouldn't be too bad.

Also, when you turn 19 in Ontario, you reach the legal drinking age, THEREFORE. Booze and titties.

I mean, at 18 (in the US) you can buy cigarettes and porn.  The US is just encouraging 18 year olds to engage in a little afterglow after having sex with themselves.  I guess it's cool.  19 and 20 are just meaningless to me.  I guess I can now go to Canada and drink anywhere and not be limited to Quebec, but until I head to Whistler, I'm not going outside of Quebec anyway.  I wish they pulled what they did back when my mom/dad turned 18/19/20/21.  The drinking age was 18 and when my mom turned 18, they changed the age to 21, but she got grandfathered in.  When my dad turned 18, they changed it back to 18.  What happened to those days?

I don't know, 19 has been a great age to me. I haven't been sober through any of it, though. but then again, I pretty much came out of my mom's womb fucked up.

18 here in Australian allows us to legally drink. So it's a pretty big deal. Also means that you're classed as an adult and can be prosecuted as such :(

On a more serious note 18 was a big deal for me. I was the youngest in my graduating class and when I FINALLY turned 18, it was cool, because I could finally buy my own ciggs. 

Though the downside is that there is no excuse to bum around your home town anymore.

ahahha, i remember turning 18, i bought a huge cigar and tried to smoke it
 
it was really nasty and i ended up almost throwing up, after that the only difference between being 17 and 18 was i could buy lotto's
